Merit Badge Resources, Worksheets, and Revision Dates

Here are links to Merit Badge resource pages and worksheets along with the requirement revision dates. Make sure the Merit Badge pamphlet (book) you are using is not out of date (older than the revision date). Rank workbooks are also listed.

Merit Badge Workbooks (worksheets) are not required but are tools that can help Scouts organize notes, listen actively, and document their work. These worksheets are used by Summer Camps, Merit Badge Events, and individual Scouts. See Merit Badges for more details on earning a Merit Badge. Workbooks allow Merit Badge Counselors to offer group instruction but still "...test the Scout individually."BSA Click a merit badge below for the current requirements.
